"When confronted with a crisis because of a copper plumbing burglary, Mr. Grady, of Grady's Painting, Plastering and Construction, willingly traveled many miles to come to my aid. Requesting only a $1.00 deposit against a $4,500.00 job, he masterfully reconstructed my nineteenth century lath and plaster hallway wall, also thoroughly compensating for a missing portion of a central stud unwittingly removed by a plumber! After his extensive search for appropriate composition and dimension of material, he replaced and replicated a section of my forty-year-old faux onyx tub surround with common white PVC sheet, tinted oil-based colors, glaze, paint brush, and a rag. His applied natural talents and superlative skills saved me thousands of dollars! On the basis of both professional conversation and knowledgeable observation, Mr. Grady possesses the intrinsic knowledge of old-world trades, the artistic capabilities, the problem=solving thought processes, and the personal work ethic to accomplish a broud scope of reconstruction and restoration."

"The work went well. The contractor, Charles Goldman,  was there by 11, provided an estimate, left to pickup supplies and was back on the the job by 12. The job proceeded apace and the last coat was on by 4pm. The appearance is outstanding and my wife is well pleased. 
We've a number of other small jobs requiring plaster repair and drywall and we intend to have Ace do them."

"After inspecting the needed work Wes gave a reasonable estimate for a minor repair/paint job to replace a section of rotten trim on fascia board.  He performed the work just as he said, within the timeframe he estimated.  I'm very happy with his professionalism and punctuality.  I would definitely hire him again for handyman work.

"My kitchen while some what functional was (to be honest) ugly. A friend recommended Anthony (Custom built and Painted) and when I called he sounded professional, knowledgeable, and was able to meet to give an estimate within a couple of days. His estimate was written in a very easy to read manner with all cost and options spelled out in plan English. He did not hesitate to answer any question I had and he was not pushy when "selling". When he cam in the first day to start the work he laid down drop cloths and hung plastic in the kitchen doorways to avoid tracking in dirt and spreading dust through out the house.

While in was a little inconvenient to lose my kitchen for a week (I really didn't mind not cooking that much!) the end results were well worth it. The price was a little higher than I had originally planned but after adding in a pull out spice rack and a few extra cabinets I was happy with it. He also finished removing the old nasty wallpaper we had inherited from the previous owners (I had tried but stopped when I started to get more wall than paper off) and patched and painted the walls. You can't even  tell where my attempt at home improvement was.

After he was finished and had removed all of his tools he even cleaned my kitchen (I can't even get my husband to do that :) to remove any leftover dust. He and his guys were very polite and respectful of my home (no trash or tools left laying around at the end of the day, they did not go into other parts of the house, etc.) the entire time they were there (about a week). From start to finish they did what they promised to do in the time frame quoted. Overall I was very happy with  the service and would highly recommend them to anyone!"

Plaster Repair FAQs, answered by experts

Plaster can be a difficult DIY to master, especially if you plan to plaster an entire room, rather than patch a small area. Before you begin a plaster DIY project, you need to know which tools and type of plaster to use. It's also important to know how to prepare the surface and apply the plaster for a smooth finish. If that all sounds like a lot of work, you may prefer hiring a local plaster repair contractor to do the job.

Yes, you can apply new plaster over an existing plaster surface, such as a wall or ceiling, provided the old plaster is in good condition. Before you begin, check the stability of the existing plaster. The surface must be clean, free of loose material, and have no peeling paint. It is also recommended to roughen the surface slightly to promote adhesion. For older plaster, applying a base coat like a PVA emulsion or a specific bonding agent or primer is crucial. This step makes the existing plaster less porous and ensures the new and old layers adhere properly for a smooth, long-lasting finish.

You can skim coat plaster, but it’s better to repair the plaster itself. A skim coat is a thin coat of drywall joint compound spread over the surface of a wall. The result is a flat finish that looks pleasing, but part of the appeal of plaster is its imperfections and aesthetic. Skim coating is best when limited to drywall applications.

If your home was built before the 1940s and was not remodeled in the past 50 or so years, you probably have plaster walls. Aside from assuming, there are some practical ways to tell if you have plaster walls, including the following: If you knock on the wall and it feels solid, not hollow, if you can’t insert a thumbtack easily, if there are cracks that look like spiderwebs, or if your home has curved, arched, or swirled walls, doorways, or window openings.

If you have an unfinished basement or attic, you could examine the backs of any finished walls to check, too.

The cost to repair a ceiling after a water leak can vary, with averages ranging from $419 to $1,359, or $45 to $55 per square foot. Smaller patches may cost around $150. The final price depends on the size of the affected area and the extent of the damage. Remember that you will also need to repair the source of the leak, such as roof damage or a plumbing issue, which can cost an additional $200 to $1,550. Depending on the situation, you might also face costs for repainting or repairing floors. For an accurate estimate, it is best to get a quote from a professional.
